having taken a (cautious) look at sci-hub for the first time recently- since I try to make a rule of not visiting Russian file-sharing sites if given a choice- I was struck by the fact that retrieved articles are stamped with the usual retrieval information specifying the institutional source for the pdf etc. 

Which raises the question in my mind: is it possible to find out if one's own library is being used to contribute to this mass-piracy criminal enterprise, and if so, what should one do about it? Presuming that it's impossible to get 'delisted' from sci-hub, what kind of protections can be put in place to minimize risk?

Of possible interest.

Academic publishing company Elsevier has filed a complaint at a New
York District Court, hoping to shut down the Library Genesis project
and the SciHub.org search engine. The sites, which are particularly
popular in developing nations where access to academic works is
relatively expensive, are accused of pirating millions of scientific
articles.
